Seventh: This will surprise people, especially those by the Paul Richards Ethic, but Baltimore Orioles aren't going where this year. The boy- pitchers are something less sure bets, and Skinny Brow getting old.

In the longest season ever (each American League team will play 162 instead of the traditional 154 games), almost every record will be within reach. Babe Ruth's 60 home runs, Outfielder Jim Lemon's 138 strikeouts, all the endless statistics of other summers will be under attack...
